8 b43 is a driver for the Broadcom 43xx series wireless devices.
9
10 Check "lspci" for something like
11 "Broadcom Corporation BCM43XX 802.11 Wireless LAN Controller"
12 to determine whether you own such a device.
13
14 This driver supports the new BCM43xx IEEE 802.11G devices, but not
15 the old IEEE 802.11B devices. Old devices are supported by
16 the b43legacy driver.
17 Note that this has nothing to do with the standard that your AccessPoint
18 supports (A, B, G or a combination).
19 IEEE 802.11G devices can talk to IEEE 802.11B AccessPoints.
20
21 It is safe to include both b43 and b43legacy as the underlying glue
22 layer will automatically load the correct version for your device.
23
24 This driver uses V4 firmware, which must be installed separately using
25 b43-fwcutter.
26
27 This driver can be built as a module (recommended) that will be called "b43".
28 If unsure, say M.

30# Auto-select SSB PCI-HOST support, if possible
31config B43_PCI_AUTOSELECT
32 bool
33 depends on B43 && SSB_PCIHOST_POSSIBLE
34 select SSB_PCIHOST
35 default y
36
37# Auto-select SSB PCICORE driver, if possible
38config B43_PCICORE_AUTOSELECT
39 bool
40 depends on B43 && SSB_DRIVER_PCICORE_POSSIBLE
41 select SSB_DRIVER_PCICORE
42 default y

44config B43_PCMCIA
45 bool "Broadcom 43xx PCMCIA device support (EXPERIMENTAL)"
46 depends on B43 && SSB_PCMCIAHOST_POSSIBLE && EXPERIMENTAL
47 select SSB_PCMCIAHOST
48 ---help---
49 Broadcom 43xx PCMCIA device support.
50
51 Support for 16bit PCMCIA devices.
52 Please note that most PC-CARD devices are _NOT_ 16bit PCMCIA
53 devices, but 32bit CardBUS devices. CardBUS devices are supported
54 out of the box by b43.
55
56 With this config option you can drive b43 cards in
57 CompactFlash formfactor in a PCMCIA adaptor.
58 CF b43 cards can sometimes be found in handheld PCs.
59
60 It's safe to select Y here, even if you don't have a B43 PCMCIA device.
61
62 If unsure, say N.

67 ---help---
68 Support for the IEEE 802.11n draft.
69
70 THIS IS BROKEN AND DOES NOT WORK YET.

95 work for you.
